Prepare for Camp Prepare!
Common items used for camping such as water, canned food, flashlights, extra
batteries and first aid supplies are just a few of the items that should be in
a disaster preparedness kit. While the Red Cross recommends at least a
three-day supply of food and water, larger disasters, like a Cascadia
earthquake may require supplies for several weeks.
